- #1生徒 (とにお)1/2I read this article beforehand and honestly it's over my head. I don't give a damn about the economy. But I decided to sign up for the Eiken exam, and they require this kind of article -- eventually I have to have an opinion and speak in English.2/2I think it's boring, but I have to do this.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1I read it ahead of time and, honestly, it went over my head. I don't really care about economics, but I signed up for Eiken and they make you discuss articles like this. It's boring, but I'm stuck with it.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Can I be honest? I don't care about the economy at all -- I only signed up for Eiken to force myself to actually talk. Do your other students genuinely enjoy this stuff, or are they all faking it like me?
- #2講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/2That's fine, I don't mind it. I actually find it quite interesting, trying to get people's take on it and asking follow-up questions. It's a bit like an interview -- like a podcast.TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 2/2I'm not a journalist, but yeah.
- #3生徒 (とにお)The Eiken is two-fold -- first the written exam, and if you pass that, the speaking test. It'll be around October, a few months ahead, so there's no rush. But eventually I have to prepare, so I'm glad if you can help me get ready for that.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1Eiken has two stages -- a written test first, then a speaking test if you pass. Mine's around October, so there's no rush yet, but I'd really appreciate your help getting ready.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Mine's in October, so technically there's no rush. But honestly, 'no rush' is exactly how I've dodged every exam in my life. Maybe your job is to just bully me into starting early.
- #4講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1Yeah, that's fine.
- #5生徒 (とにお)Should the conflict continue -- why 'should'? What is that?NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1What does 'should' mean here, in 'should the conflict continue'?ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Wait -- 'should the conflict continue'? That's a strange use of 'should. ' Is that just formal writing, or do people actually say it out loud?
- #6講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1It's 'should' used like 'if. ' It can be used in a variety of ways, but here it's similar to 'if' in meaning.
- #7生徒 (とにお)It's over my head, honestly. I can't follow every single part. I'm not an expert in any of these areas -- I'm not following the finance side, or the war between Iran and the United States.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1Honestly, it's over my head. I can't follow every part, and I'm no expert -- not on the finance, not on the Iran-US situation.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1I'll just admit it -- half of this went over my head. But maybe that's the point of reading it out loud: I don't have to understand it, I just have to survive saying it. Right?
- #8講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/2One part I found confusing was this. I'm not an expert on public administration, but -- why would government subsidies boost investment? The corporate profit part makes sense; if corporations are making massive profits, that garners more investment.TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 2/2But I don't get why subsidies would boost investment.
- #9生徒 (とにお)1/2I think the big companies like Toyota have been rolling for years, thanks to the weak yen -- we export a lot of cars. A lot of the big companies depend on the export side, not importing, so their numbers are great. When investment goes up it's a direct plus for the economy, while high energy prices are a minus.2/2It's kind of a textbook answer.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1Big exporters like Toyota have thrived for years because of the weak yen -- exporting cars is cheap for them. Their profits are huge, so they keep investing, which props up the economy. The energy costs drag it back down, though.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Here's the part nobody says out loud -- it's exporters like Toyota who win from the weak yen, not us. The textbook says 'investment offsets energy costs,' but that investment never reaches my street. So whose economy are we even talking about?
- #10生徒 (とにお)1/2I work in construction, so I'm directly hit. Petrol, diesel, concrete, timber -- everything goes up because it all has to be delivered. Some of my guys lost their jobs, temporarily laid off, just staying home and drinking.2/2We're really the victims of this kind of war.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1I'm in construction, so this hits me directly. Fuel, concrete, timber -- it all goes up because everything has to be delivered. Some of my guys got temporarily laid off and they're just stuck at home now.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/2You want to know what a recession actually looks like? It's my crew at home with a beer at two in the afternoon because there's no work. The report calls it 'weakened investment.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 2/2' I call it guys I know losing their jobs.
- #11講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1Right -- petrol, diesel, concrete, timber, it all goes up because it needs to be delivered. Are they all laid off, or just temporarily?
- #12生徒 (とにお)1/2The one bit of good news is the report expects business investment to hold up thanks to strong corporate profits -- but that's just the big companies. I run a small business. There are no big companies around me, no connection, and the trickle-down never happens.2/2The big companies thrive and we take a direct hit. But I'm scraping by.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1The report's one piece of good news -- strong corporate profits keeping investment up -- only applies to the big players. I run a small business with no link to them. The trickle-down never reaches us, but I'm scraping by.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Everyone keeps saying 'the trickle-down. ' I've run a small business for years and I've never once felt a single drop. Do you actually believe trickle-down is real, or is it just something economists say to feel better?
- #13講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1It's kind of the way of the world, right? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. It's a never-ending cycle.
- #14生徒 (とにお)1/2It's a triangle situation, like a Mexican standoff -- complicated. Netanyahu convinced Trump to start a war because Iran was supposedly developing a nuclear bomb again, but there's still no clear evidence. Israel's government, not its people, has wanted to crush Iran for decades and kept trying to coax the US into bombing.2/2My position is that America is the middleman, trying to maintain the balance.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1It's a triangle -- almost a Mexican standoff. Netanyahu pushed Trump into it over Iran's supposed nuclear program, but there's no hard evidence. Israel's government has wanted to hit Iran for decades; I see the US as the middleman trying to keep the balance.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Here's my read -- this isn't really America's war, it's Israel's, and the US got dragged into it. Netanyahu's wanted this for decades; Trump just happened to be the guy he could push. You're British -- does it look the same from over there, or does the UK frame it differently?
- #15講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1I don't want to take sides, but a lot of the news frames it as America's war -- like they need to stop it -- and it's not really their war, in my book. Trump looks like he's in trouble, because this conflict goes against everything he promised: getting costs down, stopping wars, fixing the economy. He could be in trouble in the midterms.
- #16生徒 (とにお)1/2Honestly, the test doesn't want my opinion. It just wants to see if I can stall for thirty seconds in English without panicking. You open with a fake stance, then sprinkle in 'however,' 'that said,' 'at the end of the day' -- those are basically duct tape.2/2You can hold any garbage opinion together with them. I don't have thoughts on the economy; I have a technique for sounding like I do.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1The exam doesn't really want my opinion -- it just checks whether I can talk for thirty seconds without freezing. You take a fake stance and glue it together with 'however' and 'that said. ' I don't have real thoughts; I just have a technique for faking them.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1Here's my honest theory -- these exams don't test thinking, they test bluffing with a straight face. I could give a completely insane opinion and still pass, as long as I say 'at the end of the day' with confidence. Doesn't that make the whole certificate kind of meaningless?
- #17講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/2It's quite funny, actually, because that's exactly how the speaking part works. It doesn't matter what your opinion is, as long as you can make it sound good and express it well in English. Your opinion could be totally insane and the examiner would just go, 'Ah, yes.TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 2/2'
- #18生徒 (とにお)1/2Eiken is a Japanese test, and they don't check how fluently you talk -- they just tick boxes. Even for Grade 1, the highest level, most people memorize a prepared answer before they walk in. There's no off-script, no off-the-cuff, no improvising.2/2The topics are garden variety -- economy, environment -- so you can prepare a structure for each.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1Eiken is built for Japanese learners and it grades by ticking boxes, not real fluency. Even at Grade 1, most people walk in with a memorized answer. The topics are predictable -- economy, environment -- so you just prepare a structure for each.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/2Here's what's funny about Eiken -- it rewards memorizing, not speaking. The topics are so predictable you can pre-build an answer for every one. IELTS is the opposite, right?ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 2/2One-on-one, real-time, no room to bluff -- that's the one that actually scares me.
- #19講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1Right -- you could memorize a structure for answering each type of question. If they talk about the environment, you use these expressions and structure it this way; if it's another topic, you have a memorized format for that one.
- #20生徒 (とにお)1/2With IELTS there's real back-and-forth -- you can't deceive the examiner because it's one-on-one and you have to come up with ideas in real time. Eiken is only two or three exchanges, and you can get by with prepared answers. For me, taking Eiken isn't about a career -- it's a hobby.2/2But I also want the certificate as proof I can make money from English, because I'm building an app and I have to be my own first customer.NATIVE俺の表現の修正chunk 1/1IELTS has real back-and-forth -- one-on-one, no bluffing, you think on your feet. Eiken is just two or three exchanges you can survive with prepared answers. For me it's a hobby, but I want the certificate to prove I can earn from English, since I'm building an app and I'm my own first customer.ENGAGED本物の会話の深さchunk 1/1The truth is, I don't need Eiken for a job -- I need it as proof. I'm building an English app, so I have to be my own first customer; how do I sell it if I can't even pass an exam myself? Maybe the real test isn't Eiken -- it's whether I'd actually buy my own product.
- #21講師TEACHER講師の native 表現chunk 1/1That's a good way of doing it. I help people prepare for the exams. I'm curious what level you'd get -- you've never taken it before, so this'll be the first time.
